Relationship struggles and sexual brokenness can make you feel ashamed, trapped, and alone. For over 20 years, Avenue has helped people restore their lives and relationships. Get into this private healing group for men and experience Biblically sound materials, a supportive environment, and both accountability and encouragement.
Don’t wait! Sexual struggles can be so difficult to talk about, but once you have shined the light on your struggle, the power it has over you will begin to weaken. You need a supportive community.
Please call or text Matt Guy (616-262-7758) prior to joining.

No matter the cause of your loved one’s death, this is an opportunity to be around people who understand what you are feeling.
You will learn valuable information on facing life situations, recognize symptoms of normal emotions and those of being stuck, and you’ll gain renewed hope for the future. These sessions are open to any adult regardless of whether your experience is recent or not so recent. The group is led by individuals who have personally experienced grief due to a loved one’s death.
Each week includes a DVD teaching time followed by group discussion on topics relevant to your situation. You will also receive a workbook to keep you engaged throughout the week. Our hope is that you will find encouragement, help, and healing in grieving the death of your loved one.
This group will meet from September 8–December 1. If you are interested in joining or connecting with someone, please email Jean.

Band of Brothers is a small community of men who gather every Wednesday morning in the Cave to study the Bible and grow together. We pray, share, study and talk about how to live as men through our faith in Jesus. We meet every Wednesday morning at 6:00 am and wrap up by 7:00. We meet in person but also offer Zoom attendance if needed. Coffee and friendship are always offered. Band of Brothers is always open for new guys, so if you want to connect right away, make some new friends and get into God’s Word, reach out to the leader via email and jump in. Please contact Ray Carmichael before joining us on a Wednesday morning.
“My wife and I started attending Crossroads in the summer of 2017, having moved to Grand Rapids from Chicago. We didn’t know anyone at church but knew God had led us there. I needed a group of men who I could trust, enjoy and be honest with. I found it in Band of Brothers where I have grown in my faith, encouraged by others and stretched in my understanding of Scripture. This group has become one of the most important parts of my personal and faith experiences.”
– Ray Carmichael
Deb and I started attending Crossroads in the fall of 2017. It wasn’t long before I attended some men’s events, then began coming to Band of Brothers on Wednesday mornings. It makes a big church feel smaller. The encouragement and challenge I get from studying God’s Word together, and from talking to, and praying with the other guys in the group are necessities in my life. I’m grateful to have this group!

Men's | Captivity to Freedom
2025-11-19 06:00 - 07:30, 2025-11-26 06:00 - 07:30, 2025-12-03 06:00 - 07:30, 2025-12-10 06:00 - 07:30, 2025-12-17 06:00 - 07:30 | Crossroads Bible Church, 800 Scribner NW, Grand Rapids, 49504, United States
Captivity to Freedom is a community offered to men who feel captive to the slavery of sin. The truth is that many men are stuck in sexual bondage, stuck in slavery to porn and lustful thoughts. To you, Jesus says, “I have come to proclaim release to the Captives, and Freedom to the oppressed.” Join a small group of guys who are pursuing holiness and healing together. Group runs weekly from September through May. There is also a group offered on Thursday evenings from 7-8:30PM.
Registration is required. Please reach out to Andy with any questions.
“Sixteen years ago I was shackled to every sinful desire I could imagine. My whole life I “knew” of Jesus, but that simple knowledge did nothing to free me from a life of slavery. Somewhere deep in my soul I desired freedom but I honestly had never even thought it was possible. My marriage was deteriorating, and I was a drunk that was driven by fear and lust.. Then God…, through the love and counsel of a brother in Christ, walked me through steps of repentance and forgiveness. Jesus destroyed the chains that held me captive. Then, and only then, through the love and unconditional acceptance of Jesus could I find true Freedom, as a Child of God.”

This year’s study, Exile and Return, invites you on a powerful journey through the Old Testament, where God’s people were called to build His kingdom in a foreign land. Their story is our story—we, too, are strangers in a broken world, called to build for His glory. As we explore how God equips and positions His people, we’re challenged to ask: Am I building my life for Christ? Exile and Return reminds us that our time to build is now.
Books included in this year’s study: Ezekiel, Daniel, Ezra, Esther, Haggai, Zechariah, Nehemiah, and Malachi.
